130. O Thou Holy One

1. O Thou Holy One,
Thou All-gracious One!
O my soul, ever praise Him!
Daily be bringing
Praises with singing,
Laud thou, laud thou Jehovah!
Angels in glory, Sing ye His story,
Praise ye, praise he Jehovah!

2. O Thou Holy One,
Thou All-gracious One!
Thine is wisdom and power!
Grace hast Thou given,
Life in Thy heaven!
His love now praise, O praise Him!
Try it and wonder,
His goodness ponder!
Our God is love, O praise Him!

3. O Thou Holy One,
Thou All-gracious One!
Thou good Shepherd and Savior!
Sheep that were erring.
Punishment bearing,
Lost and ready to perish;
Thou, Lord, hast found them,
Saved, healed, and bound them:
Praise now the love we cherish!

4. O Thou Holy One,
Thou All-gracious One!
Praise be to Thee and honor!
Slaves’ bonds were shattered,
Sheep saved, once scattered,
Thine, O Lord, is salvation!
Joy in the highest,
Grace now is nighest, -
Thanks, O Lord, for salvation!

5. O Thou Holy One,
Thou All-gracious One!
King of heavenly glory!
Sins Thou dost banish,
Then they all vanish, -
Adam is past forever!
Grace Thou revealest,
All our wounds healest,
Moses is past forever!

6. O Thou Holy One,
Thou All-gracious One!
Thou alone art my Portion!
Thy Spirit’s power
Grants every hour
Life and light and salvation!
Freed by Thee, Savior,
I would not waver,
Faithful to Thy salvation!

7. O Thou Holy One,
Thou All-gracious One!
Thou dost grant holy seasons!
Our heart rejoices,
We lift our voices,
Praising the joys of heaven!
There we will greet Thee,
With all who meet Thee,
Praising the joys of heaven!

8. O Thou Holy One,
Thou All-gracious One!
Father, Savior, and Counsellor!
There I’ll be living
Where Thou art giving
To Thy servants full glory;
Those who live for Thee,
By Thee made worthy,
Shall shine in heavenly glory!
